WADT 2014 - 22nd International Workshop on Algebraic Development Techniques (WADT 2013)

The algebraic approach to system specification encompasses many aspects of the formal design of software systems. Originally born as formal method for reasoning about abstract data types, it now covers new specification frameworks and programming paradigms (such as object-oriented, aspect-oriented, agent-oriented, logic and higher-order functional programming) as well as a wide range of application areas (including information systems, concurrent, distributed and mobile systems).
Topics of interest:
Typical, but not exclusive topics of interest are:
Foundations of algebraic specification
Other approaches to formal specification, including process calculi and models of concurent, distributed and mobile computing
Specification languages, methods, and environments
Semantics of conceptual modelling methods and techniques
Model-driven development
Graph transformations, term rewriting and proof systems
Integration of formal specification techniques
Formal testing and quality assurance
Validation and verification
